Question

Write the following reactions:
(i) Williamson's synthesis
(ii) Mendius reaction
(iii) Friedel Craft's Alkylation
(iv) Haloform reaction
(v) Gattermann reaction
(vi) Carbylamine reaction

Answer 1

(i) Williamson Synthesis:

$\underset{\left(alylHalide\right)}{\underset{}{RX}}+R^{\prime }ONa⟶\underset{EtherFormation}{\underset{}{RO{R}^{\prime }}}+NaX$

(ii) Mendius Reaction:

$RCN+\underset{nescentHydrogen}{\underset{}{\left[H\right]}}⟶R-C{H}_{2}N{H}_2$

reducing of isonitrite.

(iii) Friedel Craft's Alkylation:

Refer to image 01

This is alkylation of aromatic compound.

(iv) Haloform Reaction:

Refer to Image 02.

This is specifically Iodoform Reaction.

(v) Gattermann Reaction

Refer to Image 03.

Diazonium Chloride on reaction with $Cu$ and $HCl$ gives.
